Board rules

These rules are disclosed to clarify the various responsibilities of all community members here on MindWriters. They shall be adhered to by everyone to ensure that our board runs smoothly and provides a fun and productive experience for all of our community members and visitors.

Purpose

The Mindwriters forum is a community of hypnotists focused on the exchange of knowledge, techniques and experiences. Anybody can participate in the discussions even without any prior experience as a hypnotist. #

A minimal knowledge of hypnosis and the way it works is expected. For instance:

Ethics and trust play a major role in hypnosis. You shouldn't advertise or encourage manipulative or destructive behavior. However, if all parties have given their initial consent (and are legally able to give their consent) or if the discussions are hypothetical, then posts are allowed. If not otherwise implied, it is expected that one of those two conditions are met. For instance:

Asking for advice on how to best formulate a suggestion to dumb somebody down, is allowed.

Asking how you can best hypnotize somebody you know without them knowing, is not allowed.

The MindWriters community is a community of enthusiasts that do not have any formal training. If you need medical advice, please consult a certified practitioner. #

Categories

The Mindwriters community is first and foremost about factual and constructive discussions. While it does not mean that casual discussions are prohibited, those should be kept to a minimum. The forum is structured in the following manner #

The first category of this forum is open to all. it groups the following topics:

Starting with hypnosis
Ask for advice, share experiences and get feedback on how to begin in hypnosis. What to learn, how to learn and when.

Hypnosis techniques
Ask for advice, share experiences and get feedback on inductions, deepeners, awakeners and techniques that get your subject where you want them to be.

These are the main topics on the site. We encourage experienced hypnotists to answer beginner questions in these threads in order for everybody to enjoy the forum. #

After having participated enough on the site you can request write access to this category. There is no fixed number of posts or required age of the account. The quality of your posts and your understanding of the subject will be what we analyze. Any member who shows a decent understanding of hypnosis will get access. You do not need any advanced knowledge, but practical experience will be valued. Long term hypnosis and programs need some experience to get right. This restriction is aimed at improving the quality of the discussions. #

Prohibited Content

The sharing of any full content without the consent of the copyright owner is prohibited. Sharing parts of a script as part of an analysis of the script, is allowed. #

Wiki

All users are provided write access to the mindwriters script wiki. This wiki is intended to be a collection of scripts written by the community. We encourage any member to publish, edit and comment scripts there. #

You are required to use the provided page template in order for all scripts to have the same layout and contain the same required informations. To insert the template, just use the button over the creation text field. #

Every script page should contain a section with a detailed description of the scripts goals, the triggers it requires and implements, and for what type of person the script is. Feel free to provide more information to help others understand the script. #

The scripts are intended to be as modular as possible:

Induction scripts should just contain one induction and no deepener. If there is a point where you switch to something else please create a deepener fir this part.

Deepener scripts should only contain one independent deepener, and not be a collection of them.

Suggestion scripts should only contain one trigger or suggestion, as far as you can separate them.

Awakener scripts can contain a part to get the subject back into trance after the awakening. If there is any deepening after putting the subject back into trance, please create a deepener script for this part.
